The Big Bang isn't a myth, it's the prevailing cosmological theory of the universe's early development, built upon a veritable mountain of evidence.
If you want to believe that everything came out of nothing from nowhere for no apparent reason, that life is just a curious side effect of an unknowing and uncaring cosmos, that when you die you are just so much compost, and that the best you can hope for is a life of self-gratification and a painless extinction, have at it. That’s your myth.
Did you even read my last reply? In regards to cosmogony I stated "Without sufficient data it's amusing to speculate, but not particularly informative." The same applies to the cosmos "caring" about me, or the existence of an afterlife. I don't know why the universe exists. Of course, there are plenty of people who think they do know. It was made by Allah. Or Yahweh. Or Vishnu...
Etc.
And by the way, you didn't answer my question. Please allow me to repeat it for your convenience: Suppose an overwhelming amount of valid scientific evidence was shown to you that the Biblical flood never occurred. After all is said and done the only argument you're left with is "It must be true, because it's in the Bible". Do you change your mind?

This is a straw man designed to “expose” me as an irrational person, unless I go along with the “evidence” you purport to present, or unless I’m willing to forego the accuracy of the Bible .
Have you stopped beating your wife yet?

I submit that no such irrefutable evidence exists, but I’ll humor your straw man.
If it can be proven to me beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the world wide flood never occured, as a rational being I would be compelled to concur with the evidence.
There. Does that convince you that I’m rational?
However, no such evidence exists. And no such evidence can exist. We were not there in the distant past. We cannot observe it or experience it with our five senses. We can only intepret the data. You and I will interpret the data accourding to our respective worldviews.
The most significant aspect of my worldview is this. Let God be true and every man a liar. That includes man’s evidence, as well as his interpretations thereof.
